If you want to see how MGS1 would have looked like if it was updated to HD, watch some of the videos in MGS2's Demo Theatre with "Snake (1998)" or "Ocelot (1998)" selected.---http://youtube.com/TheBorzoihttp://theborzoi.co.cc

we can only assume that it would have been too costly to get the licensing from nintendo, as well as the added difficulty of porting a gamecube game to the ps3 would have been considerably trickier (just guessing though).

They could do that but they would have to go through licensing first, and removing the MGS2 components and maybe the over the top scenes (only one i could remember being too over the top was snake jumping on the missle) due to fan request.
